Accompanist / Piano Instructoryuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

I want that special someone to finally notice me—I want to tell them how I feel…

It’s the perfect playlist for those fluttery moments when love might be in the air, or when you want to boost your romance motivation.

GuaranaSukima Suichi

Sukima Switch – “Guarana” Music Video: SUKIMASWITCH – GUARANA Music Video

GuaranaSukima Suichi

For many people, this is the first song that comes to mind when they think of Sukima Switch.

As the theme song for the film “Rough,” it’s bursting with energy and coolness to the point that at first it hardly seems like a love anthem.

But if you really listen to the lyrics, it’s unmistakably a song that belts out an overflowing love.

It’s the kind of track that gives you a push when you can’t quite find the courage to face the person you like.

sense of distanceHakoniiwa Ririi

Hakonowa Lily’s “Kyorikan” is a song about that near-yet-far, far-yet-near relationship between two people before they start dating.

Released in 2022, this single features Hakonowa Lily, who also serves as a guest vocalist for the creator collective HoneyWorks.

It was used as the ending theme for the anime Aharen-san wa Hakarenai.

The lyrics depict the happiness of everyday life spent with someone you adore and the thrill of being mistaken for a couple—guaranteed to make your heart flutter as you listen.

And when the distance finally drops to zero and their feelings reach each other, it becomes an irresistibly happy number.

Loving UniverseSCANDAL

SCANDAL 'Koisuru Universe' (Short Ver.)

Loving UniverseSCANDAL

SCANDAL has led the charge among female rock bands in the Heisei era.

It’s fun just to follow the cool guitar phrases, but if you listen to the lyrics, they portray the cute feelings of a girl in love.

A song you can enjoy both as a band sound and as a one-sided love anthem.

A third of pure-hearted feelingsSIAM SHADE

One-Third of Pure Feelings – SIAM SHADE (with lyrics)

A third of pure-hearted feelingsSIAM SHADE

Even though he’s doing his best to love her in his own way from a male perspective, it doesn’t quite get through to her, and his feelings keep missing the mark.

His awkwardness feels pure and very likable.

The lyrics express a man’s honest feelings, and while it’s bittersweet, I think it’s a song men can really relate to.

You know what,are-kun &『yuika’}

You know. / Are-kun & “Yuika” [MV]

You know what,are-kun &『yuika'}

A refreshing melody that evokes the feeling of spring and lyrics that capture the innocence of first love make a lasting impression! This is a duet song by Are-kun and Yuika.

Created solely through exchanges on social media, the track was born from a fateful encounter where they met in person for the first time at the recording session.

It vividly portrays the frustrating emotions of two people who have feelings for each other but can’t quite express them honestly.

Released in April 2022, the song gained attention for its youthfully nostalgic music video, in which a high school boy and girl share their feelings as cherry blossoms flutter around them.

It’s recommended not only for those experiencing unrequited love, but also for anyone looking to start a new romance with the arrival of spring.
